Items related to Space Debris
Paperback. Space debris is a steadily growing hazard for all space activities. Despite a decreasing annual launch rate, the number and mass of space debris are increasing. The first confirmed casualty of space debris is the French spacecraft CERISE which was hit in 1996 by a fragment of a rocket upper stage. The twenty-eight papers presented in this volume address the main areas of current research in the field of space debris and meteoroids in the Earth's environment. New concerns arise with the planned satellite constellations in low and medium altitude orbital regions. These proceedings provide an up-to-date picture of the space debris research activities and contribute to an improved understanding of the space debris issue.
